Anyone here have any first hand information and or reviews?
Thinking of giving it a spot check to see if the internet pics are worthy.
thanks in advance.

that picture is like the old Highlights magazine.
"Find the kid sleeping in the shade in the bowl"
"Find brosef with the mullet and wifebeater walking around." |

ok, so i went.
here is the break down. drove about 2 hours, got a thirty minute session in and then the rain hit. i will load a couple pics later (not skate shots), if anyone is really interested.
the local kids are cool as fuck. no vibe and super excited to have out of towners to skate with.
the bowl is fast, speedy and easy to get out of your comfort zone.. or mine at least. easily trickable had i slowed down a bit. lines and the pitch of the trannies are perfect. coping is cheap, slow wally holiday crap. but still does the job and is set perfectly. i guess...
also, the depth markings in the bowl are incorrect. the 9 foot section is really 8 and the 6 foot looks like it comes in somewhere around 5'3"-5'6" maybe. definitely not 6.
the "street" course is weird, with 3, yes, 3 identical sets of hubba ledges. one with a euro gap, one with a bank, and the other with stairs. whatever.
the freaky little tranny hip thing in the back is killer... no really, it will kill you. kinky and super pitchy, but once you get used to it could be tons of fun as the little pump bump and bank thing.
i didn't spend too much time on the "street" stuff.
